(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Thursday. Since October 2008 market makers are now required to be on the bid as much as they are on the offer and for like amounts of stock. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Thursday there were 4005 companies with "abnormal" market making, 2804 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2544 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with Abnormal Price Friction (bullish bias) in their stock prices. This means that there was more selling than buying in the stocks and their stock prices rose. Nokia Oyj (NYSE:NOK), Ctrip.Com International Ltd (NASDAQ:CTRP), Micron Technology Inc (NASDAQ:MU), PSS World Medical Inc (NASDAQ:PSSI), CISCO SYSTEMS INCORPORATED (NASDAQ:CSCO), Alcatel Lucent SA (NYSE:ALU).

For example, the chart above shows NOK with 4,901,405 greater shares of selling than buying (NetVol) and the stock price was up $0.04000. This means the Market Makers were trading the stock in a way inconsistent with normal supply and demand (Economics 101); more selling than buying should cause prices to drop.
